President Roosevelt's references to both | Mr, Hay and Mr. Root were received | with tremendous applause. His statement | that the latter had accepted the office of Secretary of State, a fact of which of his auditors were not aware, brought the audience to its feet cheering. | President Roosevelt and party returned to Oyster Bay at 7 o'clock to-night from the trip to Ocean Grove, N. J. The spe- | train was delayed a little en route | from Long Island City and arrived here fifteen minutes late. The Preaident was accompanied from Long Island City by | Mrs. Roosevelt, Miss Ethel Roosevelt and Mrs. Richardson of New York. As the President landed at Long Island City | from the tug Lancaster, he was greeted by his friend Jacob Riis, whom he had not seen’ for several months. ' Mr. Riis, accompanied the President ~as_far as Jamaica. The President’s trip was a’ most enjoy able one. He was joined in Jersey City | on the way to Ocean Grove by Senators Kean and Dryden of New Jefsey.. On the | return trip the President delivered a brief speech at Perth Amboy to a‘crowd | of several hundred people. 2 On his arrival here the President was met at the station by Baron Kanenko, | the finacfal agent in this country of Ja- pan. Theéy shook hands cordially, chat- | ted a few minutes and then the President velt. Baron Karenko followed " In an- | other carrlage and is an overnight’ guest | of the President.

Isthmian Afairs Likely to Be 'Trans- . ferred From War Bureau. . OYSTER BAY, July 7.—It ‘is.not un- 1{kély that the administration of af- fairs connected with the construction of: the Panama canal may -be trans- ferred from the War to the State de- partment. Since Mr. Root indicated his acceptance of the President's tender of the Secretaryship of State, the Presi- dent has had the matter of the transfer under consideration. It is known that Secrstary Taft would be quite willing to be relfeved of the responsibility at- tendant upon the Panama canal affair. The appointment of Judge Magoon to be Minister of the United States to Panama in connection with his office as Governor of the American zone on the isthmus, naturally suggests the de- sirability of placing both offices under the direction of the Sécretary .of State. into line immediately before thie: Presi- dent's carriage. In the carriage with the President rode Governor Stokes of New Jersey. A military escort accompanied the carriage. ADDRESSES THE EDUCATORS. As the carrigge turned into Main street it passed ‘a wagon filled with negroes, who began to'cheer. In response the President waved his hand at the delighted negroes. When the President entered the audi- torlum thousands mounted chalrs and cheered him. As soon as quiet had been restored he began to speak. He said in part: The chief harm done by the men of swollen fortune to the community is not the harm that {he demagogue is ¥t to depict as springing Trom their actiops \but the fact that thelr success sets up @ false standard and so serves as a bad examplo for the rest of us. If we did not oruselves attach an exaggerated im- porttance to the rich man who Is distinguished only by his riches, this rich man would have a most- Insignificant influence over us. It is generally our own fault if he does damage to us, for he damages us chiefly by aroustng olr envy or by rendering us sour and discon- tented. In his actual business relations he is much more apt to beriefit than harm the rest Mr. Root is deeply interested in the > # < ; of us; end_though It is eminently right to canal work and already has devoted |take whatover steps are necessary in order much thought to ft. While no decision regarding the transfer has yet been reached by the President, it is regarded as probable that the direction of all matters per- taining to the canAl will be placed in the hands of Secretary Root. RECEIVERS NAMED ~IN DEVLIN CASE Cyrus Leland and J. E. Hur- ley Placed in Temporary Control. TOPEKA, Kans., July 7.—Cyrus Le- land of Troy, Kans, and J. E. Hurley, general manager of the Santa Fe Rail- way system, were to-day appointed temporary receivers of the properties of C. J. Devlin, who has been adjudged a bankrupt. A bond of $250,000 will be required. “I named two men,” said Judge Pol- “because I felt that there was more work thau one could do. I think the appointments wiil be gererally con- sidered satisfuctory.” intment was made at the reguest of the Santa Fe Rallway Company throvgh its attorneys, Judge W. R. Smith and A. A. Hurd.

Moreover, such an attack is in itself an exceptionally crooked and tgly tribute to wealth, and there fore the proof of an exceptionaliy ugly and crooked state of mind in the man making the attack. SERVILITY TOWARD WEALTH. Venomous envy of wealth is simply another rm of the spirit, which in one of its mani- festations takes the shape of cringing servility toward wealth, and In another the &hape of brutal arrogance on the part of certain men of wealth, Each one of these states of mind, whether it be hatred, servility or arrogance, is in reality_ closely ‘akin .to. the other two: for each of them springs from e fartastically twikted and’ exaggerated ided of the import- ance of weaith as compared to other thin The clamor of the demagogue against wealth, the snobbery of the social columns of the newspapers which deal with the doings of the wealthy and the misconduct of those men of wealth who act with brutal disregard of the rights of others, scem superficlaily to have no fundamental relation; yet in reality they spring from shdrtcomings which are funda- mentally the same: and one of ‘these short- comings Is the failure to have proper ideals.

EULOGIZES THE PRESIDENT. Responses to the President's address were made by John R. KIirk, president of the State Normal School at Kirksville, | Mo., and Miss Katherine Blake, principal | of public school No. 6, New York City. Miss Biake's response was a notable one. She pronounced an eloquent culogy on the President, concluding with words: “He is a greater teacher than any among us. We are teachers of children; he s a teacher of men, a teacher of na- tions. He is not only the President of the United States, but also the best loved man In all the world.” As the President shook hands with Miss Blake at the conclusion of her address, the audience rose to itz feet and cheered for nearly a minute. It had been the President’s intention to make another ad- dress outside the auditorium, but his time was so short he could stop only long enough to greet the crowd which had as- sembled and to express his pleasure at the reception accorded him. He left immediately for Oyster Bay. Among the officers elected by the sev- eral divisions for the ensuing year were the following: Business section—Second vice president, W. H.

The oil refinery law was considered one of the most direct blows struck at the Standard Qil Company by the last Legis- lature tending to restrict the concern in the handling of the Kansas product. The oil refinery law provided for the erection at Peru, also of a branch of the State penitentiary to house prisoners, who, it Was intended, were to work the ofl plant. State Treasurer Kelly and to issue the bonds, declined to sign them in order to first secure a decision on the constitutianality = of the act. Attorney General C. C. Coleman filed mandamus proceedings in the State Supreme Court on’behalf of the State to compel those officers to sign the bonds. The opinion to-day- declaring the act to be illegal and unconstitutional was concurred in by all of the members of the Supreme Court. The court holds that the construction of the refinery and the branch penitentiary in connection with it is in violation of the State constitution which declares “The State shall never be a party in provement.” a refinery, it is held, would be a work ot internal improvement. The court reviews the discovery of great quantities of oil In the State’s rapid development, and ‘‘the general pub- lic complaint that a particular corpora- tion was unjustly manipulating the mar- Ket of this product so that the producer was being deprived of what rightfully be- longed to him,” and that a public de- mand had been made upon the Legisla- ture to enact laws to protect the pro- ducer. The court by Inference criticizes Governor Hoch for using a scarecrow to frighten the oil trust, so-called, and for informing the trust that the thing he has set up is a scarecrow. “The indictment of the Standard Oil Company,” says the court, “is no doubt true and the provocation was very great, but we must not make a Scarecrow of the law.” Governor Hoch was greatly disappoint- ed at the decision and said: “Now that we have started it, I wanted to go on and Tun our refinery. We would have sscured more thanyits cost in the price of oil in a few months. If I had been the Supreme Court I would hatve strained a point to have declared the law constitutional.” CHANUTE, Kan., July 7.—W. S. Hyde, president of the Chanute and Austin Oil Refinery Company, said of the Supreme Court decision: “This decision of the court will not in- jure the independent refinery. In fact it is a benefit owing to the removal of State competition. Our success depends upon the anti-diserimination law and on securing falr rates for transportation. We can fight the Standard just as well without the State.” MEXICAN WAR VETERAN DIES IN WOODLAND WOODLANT, July 7.—Camillus Nel- son, one of the most prominent of the ploneer settlers of Yolo County, died Mra.

(AS COMPANY Supreme Court of the State Decides That Concern Has No Right to Do Business TOPEKA, July 7.—The State Supreme Court to-day rendered a decision declar- ing that the Kansas National Gas Com- pany, a Delaware corporation, may not do business in Kansas. The decision, which is sweeping in its terms, makes an outlaw of the company, which it declares may neither hold property in Kansas nor operate in any manner within the State The company already has spent several million dollars in laying pipe lines in Kansas. The opinion was rendered in the case of the State of Kansas against the Kan- sas National Gas Company. When the company applled to the Kansas charter board for permission to do business in this State, the board denied t@e appii- cation. However, the company went ahead laying its pipes and contracting to deliver gas to many cities. To date the company has expended millions, of doi- lars laying pipe lines from the Southern Kansas fields to the Missiouri line and to a dozen or more cities /0f Northern Kansas. After the charter board had acted, the in the name of the State, brought this proceeding in quo warranto against the company, asking that it be required to show its autherity for doing business in Kansas and if un- able to do so it be ousted from the State. The company answered, setting fSrth its application to the charter board and alleging that it had done all things required by the statute and asking that the charter board be ordered to grant the license. A demurrer to this answer was filled. The court sustained the de- murrer and entered a judgment against | the gas company. The barred company owns a majority of the producing gas wells in Kansas and is capitalized at $10,000,000.
